In June 2004, San Diego was ranked the top biotech cluster in the U.S. by the Milken Institute. The presence of University of California, San Diego and other research institutions helped fuel this high technology growth. National defense is a major employer in the city and the region as a whole due to a large presence of military installations. Tourism is also a major industry owing to the city's climate and other major attractions. Major tourist destinations include the San Diego Zoo and its sister park, the Wild Animal Park, Seaworld San Diego, Balboa Park and the city's numerous beaches. Downtown San Diego is the city center of San Diego, California and the central business district of the surrounding metropolitan area. Downtown San Diego is literally the city center as the name "Centre City" implies, as it is located in the heart of San Diego County. Many of the city's tallest, most important, and historic buildings are in this area. Downtown San Diego is delimited by San Diego Bay to the west, Hillcrest to the north, San Diego Freeway to the west, and National City to the south. San Diego International Airport is just northwest of downtown. Bridge. .
